Simply based off this thread? I don't know, but the shape of the frames between the old kz bikes and the ex250 is pretty different. The Ninjas have that big hump that goes far into the stock tank. I wouldn't hold my breath hoping that a tank from the '70s would fit w/o using a welder. I had a 250 some years ago that my buddy fabbed up an old Sportster peanut-style tank on, just to get fuel flowing. It was fugly as can be. The only way to make that better is with some serious cutting of the frame or tank, neither of which I would recommend... but where there's a will there's a way.
EDIT: I found a picture of it!
